Have A Fingerprint Week In Town

PUBLIC ENEMIES DECORATE LOBBY BOARD AS CONTEST

THESE ARE THE PUBLIC ENEMIES CAPTURED BY G-MEN ! WHO ARE THEY?

If you can dig up stills of Public Enemies captured by ‘G’ men from newspaper morgue, you're all set for a lobby contest. The thugs we can think of off-hand are Dillinger, Baby Face Nelson, Pretty Boy Floyd, Dutch Schultz and Al Capone. Displayed on a lobby board, as pictured, you offer passes to the first 10 identifying the six of ’em. Or you don’t even have to make it a contest . . . it'll look nice as a display piece.

25” Colored Star Circle

JAMES CAGNEY

Hand-colored and mounted for an easily adaptable lobby or front display. It's var- nished and durable—and you'll be able to use it again on Jimmy’s future films. Price $3.75.

AT YOUR EXCHANGE

Fingerprinting the citizens is the new pre- cautionary method the Government is using to prevent crime ... which might pave the way for a Fingerprint Week, with cooperation of Police Department.

Publicity stories and posters invite the town to have themselves fingerprinted at Police Sta- tion or in theatre lobby, to aid the city’s war against crime. Police Dep't. provides a finger- printing outfit for your lobby — with man to operate it and take finger impressions. Celebs being fingerprinted make good photos for the papers—judging by the number that break in the N. Y. papers, having their thumbprints recorded.

@ When Irv Blumberg of the Stanton Theatre in Philadelphia played “Bureau of Missing Persons,” he promoted a fingerprinting outfit, and invited mothers to bring their babies to lobby to have the tots’ prints made — in order to aid police in the event of a possible kidnaping. Stunt went over with a splash, attracting hundreds of mothers to theatre and going big in all papers. (See illustration)

Another angle that might help the campaign, would be to get the fingerprints of a noted criminal from police, and blow ’em up for use as lobby display.

@® NEWSBOYS ‘EXTRY’ PLUG

Angle is to get newsboys on opening day to rush along main streets yelling: G-MEN CAPTURE PUBLIC ENEMY NO. Il. WUXTRY! WUXTRY! Heralds, of

course.

Famous ‘G’ Names For Advance Lobby Contest

@ All this needs is an easel with six photos— eyes blocked out, or as in illustration, up-

per part of faces masked. live photos are of famous people whose names start with ‘‘G.’’ Sixth is Cagney. Hints go under photos. Here are our suggestions — you use only italicized captions.

CLARK GABLE — Well-known screen actor

Shakespearean Role Hard to Overcome

Jimmy Cagney discovered it was a long jump from Stratford- On-Avon to the United States Department of Justice.

Cagney after more than three months in a role of ‘‘Bottom’’ in the Shakespearean fantasy, ‘*A Midsummer Night’s Dream,’’ went to work in the First Na- tional production ‘‘G Men.’’

Shakespeare’s lines apparently had gotten a firm grip on Cagney and he constantly muffed the rap-

ped from their trains directly into the roles of spectators to the big- yest motion picture scene ever filmed at the railroad terminal.

The ward-heeling politician who walked into Brick’s office one after noon learned that the young law- yer was honest—and meant it, even though it took a couple of “rights” to the jaw to convince this “boss” that Brick was on the level.

And as Davis turned to walk back to his desk, having polished off this political pander, the door opened and in walked Eddie Bu- chanan, Brick’s room-mate at col- lege and now member of the G-

First National Drama

| Government’s War on

Once again First National

done an infinite amount of good by

making America take real pride in

its fighting forces.

ii Now, First National Pictures again utilizes that dynamic young star to tell the first story ever screened of the Department of Justice agents’ war on organized crime.

This exciting, thrilling, yet in- tensely gripping drama, ‘‘G Men’’ had its local premiere yesterday at the Theatre. It is a

tremendous picture, and should cer- tainly be of inestimable value in rallying public opinion to the sup- port of the G Men — which is the term applied to Department of Jus- tice operatives.

The story, written by Gregory Rogers, was based on headlines that have screamed across the first pages of the nation’s newspapers for the past three years, and many of the incidents are recognizable to every- one, although neither the correct names or localities are used.

‘*G Men’’ is more than a thrill- ing melodrama — it is history as re-enacted for the screen.

James Cagney is the Department of Justice agent around whom most of the action evolves. He it is who traps the Mad Dog of the Gangs, the killer whom no jail could hold, and exterminates him in a rendez- vous with death.

In and out of the underworld, these G Men roam — dying and taking life, that civilized society might live safely.

Cagney has never given a better characterization, nor one that gain- ed for him a great amount of audi- ence sympathy. He is good, too, in the lighter side of the picture as well as in a romance with Margaret Lindsay who portrays the role of the sister of Cagney’s boss, a part played by Robert Armstrong.

Ann Dvorak, who also has a lead- ing role as the wife of Public Enemy No. 1, has another opportun- ity to sing and dance. She leads a chorus of dancing beauties in a night club scene and her song, espe- cially written by the famous song writing team of Fain and Kahal, will probably be one of the season’s hig hits.

: Others in the cast who deserve ; commendation are Barton MacLane,

In ‘‘Here Comes the Navy,’’ and again in ‘‘Devil Dogs of the Air,’’ James Cagney was t

After several takes had been made of a sequence depicting James Cagney, star of the picture, knocking Armstrong down in a boxing match and Keighley had ex- pressed dissatisfaction with each, Armstrong drew Cagney aside.

“Never mind pulling those punches, Jimmy,” he suggested.

They went at it again, but this time Cagney let go and Armstrong hit the mat a terrific wallop a split second after the Irish actor’s gloved fist had connected with his chin. He took the count.

After the scene had been taken from half a dozen different angles, Armstrong’s jaw took on a rosy hue. The next day he looked like a man with a toothache.

Then came a petition from a group of San Francisco citizens pleading that he be permitted to star in another musical such as ‘¢Footlight Parade.’’

The petition, signed by 485 names and directed to production execu- tives of the studio, read:

‘“We, the undersigned, having en- joyed the marvelous performance of James Cagney in ‘‘Footlight Pa- rade’’ have been eagerly looking forward to seeing him starred in another musical, in which he sings and dances.’’

Cagney frankly stated he would like to do another musical, one which he would be given an oppor- tunity really to display his vocal and terpsichorean talents.

The ‘‘tough guy’’ of cinemaland is an accomplished ‘‘hoofer,’’ hav- ing graduated to the legitimate stage from the ranks of the chorus.

Shakespearean Role Hard to Overcome

Jimmy Cagney discovered it was a long jump from Stratford- On-Avon to the United States Department of Justice.

The earlier sequences of this original screen play by Gregory Rogers, deal with the six months training period through which rook- ies go before emerging as qualified “G Men.”

The first day Cagney appeared on the set, Director William Keigh- ley introduced him to Frank Gom- pert, head of the criminological laboratory of the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s office, who acted as technical director on the picture.

Gompert took Cagney in tow. The two of them passed through a door labeled “Bureau of Investi- gation — United States Depart- ment of Justice.” They strolled down a long corridor, turned through another door bearing the legend “Fingerprinting Depart- ment.”

A vast amount of research was necessary to depict efectively the six months’ training period through which | il recruits go before becoming full-fledged “G Men.”

In order to assure technical ac- aracy in the fingerprinting and bal iisties department the studio called upon Frank P. Gompert, head of the riminological department of the las Angeles county sheriff’s office to aid in furnishing these divisions. Gompert obtained fingerprinting apparatus, selector devices, magni- fed photographs of bullets, finger- pat comparators, microscopes, ilixometers and a maze of other mysterious apparatus employed by the modern criminologist.

Experts who visited the sets de- wribed them as remarkable exam-

Edward Pawley, who plays the role of a Public Enemy, in the First National picture ‘‘G Men,’’ now showing at the er Theatre, had a bad hour at the Southern Pacific railway depot in Los Angeles where exterior sequences were filmed for the picture.

The scenes depicted the slaying of four officers in front of a Kansas City railway depot and throughout the action Pawley wore a pair of handcuffs.

The company worked the entire night and when quitting time ar rived at daybreak, the property man discovered the key to the handeuffs was missing.

An hour later, about the time his aides were discussing the advisibil ity of filing the handcuffs off, the prop man found the key in his watch pocket where he had placed | it for safe-keeping.

Theatre, has an ardent fan in Lewis. He clipped her like- ness from a newspaper and before every fight slipped it into his right glove. He won five of his last four teen fights by knockouts and eight by decisions. The only one he lost was when he misplaced the snap- shot and didn’t locate it till after the bout, he says.

(Prepared Newspaper Story)

‘G-Men’ Is Picked As “The Picture of the Month’

“*G-Men,”’ the first big picture of America’s greatest battle in the war on crime, starring James Cagney, Ann Dvorak, Margaret Lindsay, Robert-- Armstrong and many others, has been ‘chosen as ‘‘The Picture of the

Theatre on

Month,’’ by the ‘‘Picture of the Month’’ committee. It is produced by Warner Bros. and opens at the :

“*This film,’’ said the spokesman for the committee, ‘‘is a brilliant depiction of how Uncle Sam’s crime-hunters, the G-Men of the Departmertt of Justice, operate. 7 = ,

“*But more than that. In producing this First National-Picture, War- ner Bros. have served a patriotic purpose in focusing the attention of this nation on the menace of organized crime in America.

“It is a powerful drama, greatly enlivened by the splendid acting of

the cast—especially James Cagney, who leads the Federal men in the film.”’ The ‘‘Picture of the Month’’ was formed recently in order to honor particularly meritorious screen entertainments on view currently.

Radio Flashes

Here’s a sample spot an- nouncement for local sta- tions: “FLASH! G-Men has just been picked as the Picture of the Month. It's due at the Strand Theatre next week, with James Cagney, as star.”

Lobby Board Using blue ribbon gag

given to prize-winners, make a large compo board cut-out resembling “blue ribbon” awards and paste film’s stills on it. Use blue ribbon as bowler with this line: Scenes from ‘G-Men’ — The Picture of the Month.

Radio Reviewer and Ama- teurs Enact Highlights

@ With the cooperation of the leading movie reviewer in town, Skip Weshner’s staff in Philadelphia, pulled a radio stunt that’s still

being talked about. Reviewer read his rave of the film over the air, breaking it up with lines like ‘‘I’ll never forget the dramatic scene where he turned to her and said ...,’’ where- upon that seene was enacted over the ether. This was done with a number of the scenes. Our prepared radio script is applicable.

Teletype or News Ticker De- monstration for Lobby Flash

@ If there’s a teletype machine to be pro-

moted we suggest: Sending outfit in an- other room ean send phony flashes dealing with film; e. g., ‘‘James Cagney and Robert Armstrong, crack G-Men, left today for Chi- cago to trace the killers of the late Hugh Farrell.’’ You might also try for the police news ticker.

Attention, Public Enemy No. 1 — Brad Collins — is at large and heading for (name of town). He has just killed Operative Farrell. Get him. If he draws, shot to KILL! That 1s all.

Speakers on front can handle announcements like one above in the manner of police broad- casts.

Know Underworld Slang? Then Enter ‘G-Men’ Contest

Introducing case number one of

the G-Men contest.

Know the “slanguage” of the un- derworld? If you do, you’ll have an easy time solving this case.

Here’s the story as we got it:

(Case No. 1)

After one of the boldest bank robberies in the history of crime, the undercover men were told that the gangsters responsible for this crime had to be captured, for the good of Chicago and the the mid-west.

For many weeks, these brilliant agents tracked down all possible clues, until they came to the con clusion that one gang was respon sible for the daring theft. How ever, since they had no tangible evidence with which to arrest them, they assigned one of their most canable men to get-the neces- sary evidence. We shall call him X33.

X33 trailed this gang for many weeks, and finally, learning that they would meet in a rooming house in the suburbs of Chicago, he planted a dictaphone in the meeting room, which recorded al) the conversation that took place.

After the meeting, X33 removed tie dictaphone and listened to what he thought would be suf: ficient proof of their guilt. But the important conversation was spoken in the slang common to the Chicago underworld, and X33 was stumped for a moment—not sure that what he had heard wus

Opposite him is charming Mar- garet Lindsay who has the part of the sister of Robert Armstrong, Cagney’s superior officer, and the girl whom Cagney loves.

Style Started By Ann Dvorak

Ann Dvorak, who has one of the leading roles in ‘‘G Men’’ the First National production which comes to the Theatre on has started a new trend in femin-

|ine fashions — bathing suits,

this time.

With her husband, Leslie Fenton, Ann recently com- pleted a voyage to Honolulu, It was her first trip — but Ann didn’t spend all of her time looking at the Hula dancers,

In stead, she took time off to do a little shopping, not in the American business district but in the native quarter. And the

| little number that pleased her most |} was

a Tahitian bathing suit! So she brought a supply of them home with her.

“T couldn’t wait for spring to come,” Ann said, “so I wore one them to the beach in April. And I was a riot! Honestly, I thought there was an accident near- by, the way people stared.”

A Tahitian woman’s bathing cos- tume, Ann explains, is made of tapia cloth — a printed material on which the design is usually flowers, birds or some tropical scene. It’s in two pieces — a bras- siere-like top safely anchored about the neck, and panties.

Double of Dillinger Plays Crook in ‘G Mew’

During the days when the police of the entire country were hunting for John Dil- linger, a Hollywood actor, Ed- ward Pawley by name, was hav- ing a hard time in life.

He looked so much like the notorious Public Enemy No. 1, that he was frequently stopped

by police officials and several times barely escaped arrest.

“I was tempted to turn my- self into a sandwichman and wear a sign stating I was not Dillinger,” he says.

Now Edward Pawley enacts Public Enemy No. I in the screen’s first drama of this na- tion’s determined war on crime “G Men,’ in which James Cag- ney will open at the Theatre on

Thoroughly aroused by the chal lenge of the underworld, the Fed

“The ‘G Man’ may go anywhere | he pleases, cross any state line and his assignment lasts indefinitely,” Sherlock explained. “When he is given a job to run down a criminal —that’s his job. He isn’t called on to handle a dozen other assign- ments at the same time, as is thie average city detective.
